A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

+1 although trees can shade the ground around the building and cool the area that way too
they also convert some of the sunlight turning air into sugar instead of getting warmer
It is still highly beneficial in term of heat when there is a lot of shade in a city.
The tarmac gets really hot and release that heat for a long time.
That is an urban planning problem
Lamp posts? Radio towers?
